Review of previously unshown film restored at the British war museum.
This is material filmed by ordinary people but specially trained as cameramen 
who accompanied soldiers as they entered the concentration camps.
The material was collated by Alfred Hitchcock but was never shown in a 
completed form. No reason given as yet.
The reviewer said there were heaps of bodies and people in a terrible state.
A decision was made to keep the people within the camps to feed them because 
there was no food outside the camps. Plus the camps were riddled with typhus 
and they did not wish the disease to be spread outside the camps. 
 
I'm unsure of the following. The man commissioning the film was named 
Bernstein. Perhaps he was the person who decided not to show the film. JohnT
